Riddle High School

Public Grades 7-12
Summary

Riddle High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in the rural town of Riddle, Oregon, with a total enrollment of 174 students. The school is part of the Riddle School District 70, which is ranked 134 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Riddle High School has faced significant challenges in academic performance, with consistently lower standardized test scores compared to the state average. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 8.3% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 44.4%. The school's math proficiency rates for 7th and 8th grades were also significantly lower than the state average. Additionally, Riddle High School has had a four-year graduation rate ranging from 68.2% to 81.8% in recent years, which is lower than the state average. The school has also experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 34.3% to 45.7% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Roseburg High School, which is located about 18 miles away, Riddle High School generally underperforms in academic measures, graduation rates, and other key metrics. The high rates of chronic absenteeism and the large proportion of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds may be contributing factors to Riddle High School's underperformance, which is likely influenced by the school's rural location and the district's low ranking.
